I'm not sure I can make the timer tomorrow could I get a 24h extension?

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

Another 24? We're already at 96h instead of the usual 48. But sure, another 24h added. (More Gentse Feesten for me this weekend. Hurray! Although so far they've been quite tame really. And the weather is absolute ****e)

Aahahah! Atlantis's regular troops are absolutely awesome. Great stats and magic weapons. 20 dudes + minor pd (25 guys on the field total) just drove off an air queen*. (And 10pd already dealt with a Shishi before.) Is there any other nation that can boast a basic troop lineup of that quality? The nation as a whole has it's weaknesses obviously, but I'm completely in love with my little toads.


*Granted, she had a mix of caster and SC equipment so not as strong as she could have been, was not cold immune and the one Tungalic casting frozen heart probably did half of the damage, but I'm sticking with the "Eskimo Toads are Awesome" story

I'm gonna have to ask for an extension. I'm away till 12 august at the shortest. Sorry about that, a wild vacation opportunity appeared.

(And yes, La Atlantis is awesome).

12 days? That's really a long time. I'd really like you to find a sub for your trip, pausing the game that long really is the perfect way to have everyone loose intrest. (Or, if you don't have the time to find a temporary sub before you leave, I can look around for someone who'll take good care of your nation, but that would mean you can't instruct them about what to do.)

Other than that I wish you the wildest vacation imaginable. ;)


In a related subject, I myself will be gone from around the 10th till the 18th. Calahan has already agreed to take over my playing duties for a couple of turns, but I'm looking for a volunteer to take care of the admin duties in case something comes up during my absence.

Tratorix seems to have disapeared too. I've added 24h, if I don't hear from him by then I'll look for a sub to play out his end. (Midgard doesn't have much left, but enough that turning them AI would make things significantly easier, including several powerful SC's.)

How about Bogarus? Is it worth finding a sub for him, (if he doesn't show up) or is he set-to-AI material?

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

Bogarus has one fort, which is currently under siege by C'tis, so he's not in the best position.

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

He's still got three forts, actually. But more important is what is in them. If it's an indy commander and 3 Voi Archers setting them AI won't make much difference. If it's a dozen strong mages and a SC blocker though...

Regardless, I'm tempted to just put them to AI, haven't seen anything from them that warrants otherwise really. If anyone thinks otherwise now is the time to make me change my mind.


I'll start asking around for a Midgard sub now. It's a not-much-work position, so shouldn't be too hard to find one.

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

Say, did anyone receive a lump-sum payment of gold a few turns ago? The intended recipient hasn't received it, yet a review of the .trn file shows that the payment was sent out... to someone.

Re: Awestruck. New Late Age game. (Started)
 

Valerius will be subbing for Midgard. (Thanks for that.) Since I haven't heard any objection I'll see to turning Bogarus AI.
